	TO THE PACIFIC.
	Why, if you'd know perfect ease, Just all that your heart can please, Then off, mate, I say, Ship, man, and away To the isles of the Southern Seas. In a whaler just box about, Watching round for a sperm-whale's spout, Some six months or so That for land you may know How to keep, mate, a sharp look-out. Then for shore when you're prime sharp-set, And the land's look you half forget, With a good trade wind, Your whaler behind, For port, let your course be set.
